Analysis of Free Bird
Man censures
Woman corrects
Government restricts
Bombarded by warnings
“Keep Off…”
Always restrictions
Too many
Beaten into mental submission
I think it I know it
Why can't I say it
The art of convention
I hate it!
Speak, speak
Let me listen, let me listen
I want to be a free bird
